MS Office Forum / Excel / Charting / September 2006Add colored horizontal band to
I have a line chart with two set of data (1995 and 1996). The months are along the bottom. I have added horizontal lines for the average value for each year. What I'd like to do, however, is divide the background into different colors (ie below a certain amount is good, above is average, and into the next level is bad). I have found references on adding a colored vertical line, but nothing on a horizontal - maybe because it is straight forward, but I can't figure it out. Thanks. Hi, Add 3 extra data series to the chart. Plot these as stacked column chart. Format the Gap width to be zero. You will need to set the maximum value of the Y axis in order to stop the auto scale leaving a clear space at the top of the columns.
